"Look me in the eye, you little brat!"
Seeing that a few young people were ignoring him, the old man Gao couldn't help but shout angrily.
With his brows furrowed and hair flying, arms wide open, and fury radiating from him, he resembled a furious old lion.
Under the might of a master, the sound waves that should have been invisible now seemed to take on a tangible form!
As the raindrops fell, a roaring fierce lion charged rapidly towards the crowd.
Its fierce eyes were intimidating, captivating the heart, and after leaping high, it made a hunting motion like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, swift as lightning and imposing.
If a timid person were to catch just a glimpse, they would likely be scared out of their wits!
In the distance.
The corners of old man Gao's mouth couldn't help but curve into a victorious smile.
They must have finally been frightened!
But it was too late!
How dare they ignore a master like him? This group of young people was simply asking for death!
They had no idea how terrifying a master was!
However.
Mu An narrowed his eyes, and for the first time, his gaze pierced through the heavy rain and landed on old man Gao.
What kind of eyes were those?
In that instant when old man Gao met his gaze, he froze completely.
It was as if the surrounding rainwater had completely enveloped him; no matter how hard he tried to breathe, he couldn't get enough air!
The feeling of suffocation gradually drowned his consciousness...
Roar!
The roaring lion continued to pounce towards the crowd, its sharp claws about to reach Mu An and the others.
But in the next second.
It inexplicably collapsed into a puddle of water on the ground, merging back into the vast rainwater, indistinguishable from it!
The tense atmosphere in the air also dissipated.
Only a few paw prints left in the muddy ground proved that something terrifying had just occurred here!
"What are you doing, old man Gao!"
"Say something heartfelt, are you trying to act for me?"
The dwarf old man cursed as he stepped forward, his impatience prompting him to take action himself.
Clearly, the hungry tiger had already reached the enemy, and they were about to complete their mission, yet old man Gao suddenly called off the attack?
What kind of mysterious operation was this?
In his view, what else could it be but acting?
But the careless old man didn't notice.
At this moment, the old man Gao, he spoke of had dull, lifeless eyes and stiff limbs.
He looked like a... walking corpse controlled by someone!
"You could have easily taken down those little brats but instead you dawdled!"
"Don't you know this is wasting my time to go back and watch my anime? My paper wife is waiting for me to pamper her!"
"Seriously! What kind of people are these, waiting for me to take action?! Are my hands meant for this?"
As the dwarf old man prepared to attack, he continued to spew complaints.
It was clear that old man Gao's time-wasting mysterious operation had really angered him!
"Just watch, I will definitely kill them within ten breaths..."
Pfft!
Before he could finish his declaration, the dwarf old man suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
His pupils widened as he couldn't help but look down to see an old hand piercing through his chest!
He even subconsciously overlooked the fact that it was tightly gripping a beating heart!
Because that hand belonged to someone he was familiar with, it was old man Gao's hand!
"Wh... why...?"
The dwarf old man's face was filled with disbelief as he turned to look at old man Gao standing behind him.
He couldn't understand, he really couldn't understand!
Why had the person next to him ambushed him!
This person was his old friend of many years!
Even if he had just asked the other to "say something heartfelt," he hadn't meant for the other to literally take his heart!
But, unfortunately.
He might never know the answer in this lifetime!
Because...
Bang!
Without a shred of mercy, the dwarf old man's heart was crushed in an instant.
It exploded into a mist of blood, leaving not a single fragment behind!
Even a master, no matter how powerful, still belonged to the realm of humanity.
Without a heart, one would naturally die!
Before long, a master's corpse lay in the rain, staining a patch of mud and puddles red.
If one looked closely, they could see that his eyes were wide open in death.
They held three parts confusion, three parts resentment, three parts reluctance, and one part regret...
"What... is going on?"
The female bodyguard captain couldn't help but swallow hard.
She felt like her brain's CPU was about to overload in just one minute!
First, a master was about to attack them, but at the last second, he inexplicably called off the attack.
Then, the second master prepared to strike, only to be suddenly backstabbed by the first master and successfully killed!
What kind of magical plot was this?
A real-life version of "attacking my teammate"?
They hadn't even made a move, and two masters who came to ambush them had one dead and one fled?
She couldn't help but shiver, not wanting to think about these mind-boggling matters anymore.
All she knew was one thing: she had just witnessed the fall of a master!
Mu Wanrou glanced thoughtfully at her brother, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly, remaining silent.
It seemed her brother was hiding a big secret!
[From Mu Wanrou's intense curiosity +50, congratulations, you have received the reward [Cultivation Years +10]!]
[As the mastermind behind the scenes, under your manipulation, a master with a bit of luck (600) was taken down, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +200,000]!]
Mu An watched all of this expressionlessly, his heart not stirred in the slightest.
Just now, with that one glance, he had forcibly turned the master-level old man Gao into his slave!
Turning enemies into friends, wasn't it normal to backstab his former teammate?
Moreover, since the other party dared to come to kill them, they naturally had to be prepared to be counter-killed!
But this matter wasn't over yet; there were still some "little mice" who witnessed the scene that needed to be dealt with!
Mu An thought for a moment, letting old man Gao leave to handle the little mice before returning to give his master a "big surprise"!
As for himself, he glanced in a certain direction and casually picked up a damp leaf from the ground...
[Using proficiency to enhance [Entry-level Skill: Little Li Flying Dagger]!]
[You used 1,200,000 proficiency, congratulations, you have obtained [God-level Skill: Little Li Flying Dagger]!]
—————
[God-level Skill: Little Li Flying Dagger]: Picking flowers and plucking leaves can injure! A thousand-mile assassination, never misses!
—————
Whoosh~
The leaves that should have been lying in Mu An's hands mysteriously disappeared at some point. It seemed that he had casually waved them away without anyone noticing or knowing when it happened.
At a tall hotel near Qingchuan Airport, Feng Xingtian had just shifted his gaze away from his binoculars. At this moment, having witnessed the fall of a master in 'live broadcast', he looked somewhat anxious. Moreover, he wasn't sure if it was just his illusion, but he had just made eye contact with that guy Mu An!
But it must be a coincidence! They were separated by several kilometers; how could the other party see him hiding behind the curtains?!
"It must be an illusion!" Feng Xingtian reassured himself again.
For some reason, he felt a bit uneasy and subconsciously looked out the window. To his surprise, he saw that a hole had been broken in the window? The next second, he felt his body lighten, and he fell into an endless darkness!
"Young Master Feng, I've finished my bath, let's play together... Ah! Someone's dead!"
Just as a few young models entered the room, they were about to flatter him when they saw a gaping, bleeding hole on Feng Xingtian's forehead. They couldn't help but scream.
.....
On the other side.
[Little protagonist Feng Xingtian has been forcefully assassinated by you, and the protagonist's luck has been completely reset. Congratulations, you have received the rewards: [Luck +666], [List of All Personnel Involved in This Operation]!]
Mu An's lips curled up slightly. He was never a good person! If his strength had been weak this time, it would have been their side that suffered!
The relationship between the villain and the protagonist is nothing more than the survival of the fittest!
